Summary: Stephen Kinzer's book “The Brothers” tells the story of two siblings who achieved remarkable influence, serving as secretary of state and director of the Central Intelligence Agency in the Eisenhower administration. It is a bracing and disturbing study of the exercise of American global power. These ruthless, highly-connected elites were at the very center, operating largely in secret and without accountability. Their evil legacy continues out of control this very day, and may yet swallow all humanity.

Kinzer spoke at the Midcoast Forum in Maine on June 16, 2014. Some time later, Truth and Justice Radio was introduced to his remarkable book and subsequently aired his talk. His book brings the facts to life, and we recommend it highly.

Kinzer is an award-winning foreign correspondent who has covered more than 50 countries on five continents. His articles and books have led the Washington Post to place him “among the best in popular foreign policy storytelling.”
